This article will explain in detail the example analysis of the application of icon tags in App. The content of the article is of high quality, so the editor will share it with you for reference. I hope you will have a certain understanding of the relevant knowledge after reading this article.

1. Concept

Apply an icon tag, called Badge App Icon.

Badge, badge, figuratively speaking

It is a sign worn on the body to indicate identity and occupation.

It has a long history, and its origin can be traced back to the totem symbols of clan tribes in primitive society.

In UI design, it is an application badge, which is not so concrete and is abstracted as a circle.

It has some names like this:

Apply icon tag

App contains tagged images

Badge App Icon

Little red dot

Red dot.

IOS system in the "settings"-"notification", you can find the setting of the place, is a form of "notification".

The other three forms of notification:

Sound

Banner Banners:

Will be displayed at the top of the screen and will automatically disappear

Reminder / prompt Alerts:

You need to select an action to continue

The official Android control does not have a Badge.

At the beginning of iOS design, there is no notification center (there is a notification center only after iOS5.0). Only the Badge on the desktop icon indicates whether there are any new messages in App.

At the beginning of the design of Android, there is a notification center, where you can aggregate and view all App notifications, so there is no official use of Badge to prompt users for new messages.

Badge is actually a system-level notification, App, which applies it to notifications in app, prompting users to have unread messages.

From the historical development of Badge

The function of Badge as a system message, reminding the user that there are several unread messages in app

On the contrary, it should be used in a small amount in app, as embellishment, or even not used.

2. The design form of Badge

There are two categories.

One is just a red dot.

The other is to combine numbers, or other words.

When designing a digital red dot, it is necessary to reasonably control the upper limit of the number. For example, if the upper limit is set to 9, it will show 9 seconds above 9; if the upper limit is set to 99, 99 + will be displayed above 99.

If used within app, there can be variants of a variety of colors.

For example, ColorBadges:

Let the reminder corner mark change with the App icon

ColorBadges is a Cydia plug-in. The function of this plug-in is to make the corner color of the application consistent with the color of the application icon.

The innovation of form may find some design elements in the figurative badge.

You can refer to Mickey who acts cute in Xiangyun pattern and tiger-headed shoes.

3. Interactive animation of Badge

The interactive animation of Badge is mainly to eliminate actions.

A lot of app ignored this point. I looked up some information and found that the elimination action of qq was quite interesting.

There are many ways to eliminate little red dots, such as:

Plan one, shake off the little red dot by shaking it.

Plan 2: blow off the little red dot by blowing it into the phone.

Plan 3, drag the little red dot down, which one you don't like.

Such as QQ's drag and drop red dot removal and other interesting dynamic interactive balance to eliminate the sameness and boredom of the little red dot.

This is the end of the example analysis on the application of icon tags in App. I hope the above content can be of some help and learn more knowledge. If you think the article is good, you can share it for more people to see.
